Favorite Gemsbok mount

I personally like pedestal mounts if you have the floor space versus up higher on a wall where people can’t really get up close to the animal.
European mounts on the wall, shoulder mounts on a pedestal on the floor.
 
Wall pedestal, mine has a good turn and it really shows off more of the black/white of the brisket.
 
Here is mine. Unfortunately, I would not recommend the Taxidermy who did the work. Long story.

Because of the horn height, I think they look great as a floor pedestal.
 
Ok, lads, I have the gemsbok I shot last year arriving in the next month, or so, planning on a full shoulder mount.
But, still unsure of wall/pedestal...some pic's of what others have done would be much appreciated.
Sure appreciate all the good advice/feedback on this site, pretty awesome.
Thanks,

Mark
 
I really like the extreme wall pedestal, almost a 180 degree turn
